Reincarnation Paradise: The Crucible
Chapter 426 Betrayal
The cruel curses echoed slowly in the small control cabin. Turning back to look at Hongye who was dying and unconscious behind him, Turing's already scarlet eyes began to look more ferocious.
The guy who dropped the nuclear bomb into the base was certainly hateful, but the one who deserved to die was the traitor who quietly put the space prop into the base.
Given the secrecy of the underground base, except for the active leakage of the contractors of this camp, there was almost no possibility of accidental exposure, let alone being invaded silently.
And there were very few contractors who had free access rights, so the specific identity of the traitor was easy to screen afterwards, but the current priority was not here. Since the enemy chose to take action, it was highly likely that they would not stop easily. The current priority was to quickly move to another location.
Thinking of this, Turing in the control cabin was just about to control the sentinel to move, but suddenly heard the familiar alarm sound again.
"Ding!! High-energy reaction detected directly above! Please evade immediately..."
"Boom!!"
…………
In the outside world, the shaking earth had just calmed down due to the blatant fall of the giant sentinel. The next second, a magnificent light column that penetrated the sky and the earth had violently torn through the clouds and accurately hit the giant sentinel on the surface that had dodged not long ago.
However, in just a short moment, the giant sentinel, which was as big as a metal high-rise building, was completely swallowed up by the magnificent light column that fell from the sky. The surging earth waves once again swept the entire land, and its scale continued to rise.
The pouring light column seemed endless. Under this terrifying pressure, the originally solid and heavy crust was now as soft as water waves. The rising smoke and dust mixed with large pieces of gravel gathered together to form a series of surging gray "waves" that rushed endlessly. From a distance, it seemed that the entire land was constantly wailing in this violent tremor.
The shrill wail lasted for several minutes, and the pillar of light that penetrated the sky and the earth slowly dissipated. When the dust and fog cleared, there was only a deep pit with a diameter of about 100 meters. The red magma kept dripping at the edge, and the inside was deep darkness that could not be seen at a glance.
…………
Above the cloud curtain, accompanied by the mechanical twisting sound of "click, click, click", the red magic main gun began to slowly retract into the warship.
In order to ensure that it could kill with one shot, this main gun blasted off nearly 80% of the energy of the warship, but fortunately it was worth it. When the dazzling glow dissipated, Xu Yue's ears also rang with a large piece of paradise prompt sound as he wished.
[Reminder: The Trask Industrial Base was destroyed by the Hunter, more than 80% of the senior executives were destroyed, the controller production line and the gene database disappeared... The conditions for the destruction of the camp have been met, you have obtained 12.3% of the World Source, and now you have obtained 70.4% of the World Source]
[Reminder: The plot has been seriously changed, the future of the mutants' Sentinel's End has been reversed, and the completion of the main task 'Save' has been greatly improved, and the current completion is 73%. ]
[Reminder: The Hunter destroyed one of the current major forces in the world (Trask Industries), and the rewards are being distributed... You get Soul Crystal (Medium) × 10, Technology Side Sentinel Mechanical Drawing (Dark Purple) × 1, Dark Purple Treasure Box (Sentinel) × 1]
[All reminders: The Trask Industrial camp in the current world has been captured, and all contractors in the camp automatically terminate their camp relations, the contribution value is reset to zero, and the main task progress is cleared. Please find other camps to join within six hours, and they will be wiped out in time! ! ]
…………
'Will be wiped out in time! 'The four blood-red characters hit the hearts of all the contractors like a heavy hammer, and the already chaotic situation became even more turbulent.
Let's not talk about the unlucky guys who were fighting in the Cairo battlefield and turned around to find that their camp exploded on the spot. The other contractors who received the [All Prompt] message had different expressions, some were worried, and some were murderous.
So far, Trask Industries is the first and only camp force to be removed by the contractors. Although the paradise prompts did not indicate the rewards that can be obtained after completing this feat, even if you think about it, it is not difficult to guess that the benefits behind it must be extremely generous.
Before this move had no precedent, people might not have any additional ideas, but now that someone has set an example, it is inevitable that later generations will follow suit.
After all, apart from the X-Men and the Brotherhood, which are high-end forces, there are still many weak human forces in the world, especially the Worthington Group, which was beaten to half-crippled not long ago, and is almost like fish on the chopping board.
If Apocalypse can't do it, then hurrying up to recover some damage may be the last choice.
Pulling back his sight, no matter how the contractors outside reacted after seeing the Paradise's [All Prompts], Xu Yue was full of joy. The benefits brought by the destruction of the Trask Base were completely in line with his expectations.
Let's not talk about the large amount of world sources and the completion of the main tasks for the time being. The 10 soul crystals (middle) alone can be said to be worth the money.
Throwing the small treasure box that suddenly appeared in his hand, Xu Yue turned his head to look at Hank beside him and said lightly:
"Now it's really over. Let's go. We should deal with the one in Cairo!"
……………
White House, underground command post.
The strange collapse of a remote mountain in Mexico did not attract the attention of these upper-class people. Now they have no time to care about these trivial matters. As the deadline set by Apocalypse is getting closer, the atmosphere in the command post is becoming more and more depressing.
Since the outbreak of the Cairo Campaign, the boiling flames of war and bloody slaughter have always shrouded this ruin. A total of five waves of human coalition forces have sunk here one after another.
Nearly one million human soldiers, plus countless weapons and ammunition, all poured into this not-so-large land, but in return, there was only the endless yellow sand.
Apocalypse once again used his overwhelming absolute strength to explain to the world how vulnerable the so-called technological power of mankind is in the face of the power of true gods.
Death induces fear, and meaningless sacrifices will continue to weaken will. No matter how brave and fearless the human coalition is, after experiencing two, three, or even four or five tragic defeats, it is inevitable that it will fall into a desperate situation of morale loss.
The battlefield is like this, and the command center behind it is also like this.
The successive failures have hit far more than just the soldiers on the battlefield, but also the government leaders of various countries behind them. Even if they are unwilling to admit it, the corpses under the yellow sand will not lie.
In the eyes of that "God", human resistance is like a gnat trying to shake a tree. Even if it continues to repeat ten or even a hundred times, the result will be nothing but a record number of endless corpses under the endless yellow sand.
So the contradictions arose. The human alliance, which was able to maintain unity at the beginning, soon became two distinct factions driven by their own interests after experiencing repeated defeats that could be called desperate.
One side insisted on never compromising. Even if the doomsday was coming, humans would make the high god pay the price at all costs before they died.
The other side advocated recognizing the reality. Since it was impossible to do anything, it would be better to concentrate all efforts to face the upcoming doomsday judgment than to continue to make unnecessary sacrifices. Since there was a Noah's Ark that carried life through the judgment in the past, it would naturally be no exception now.
The representatives of various countries belonging to the two factions argued endlessly in the command post, but soon fell silent. After all, no matter which faction they were, it was just a helpless choice under despair.
And in this unspeakable silence, a suffocating feeling as if the throat was strangled began to gradually spread throughout the venue.
It was not until a ball of blue smoke suddenly exploded in the center of the venue that the stagnant atmosphere in the command post was forcibly broken.
Soon the rolling smoke slowly dissipated. With the help of Nightcrawler, the Minister of Mutant Affairs, Beast Hank, who had disappeared for many days, reappeared in a very eye-catching way in the command post where representatives of humans from various countries gathered.
"Since humans can't defeat 'God', then let us mutants do it next!"
…………
The conversation between the two different races in the command post lasted for a long time. It was not until an hour later that Hank left again with the help of Nightcrawler.
The specific content of the two sides' discussion was not disclosed, but soon the human coalition forces hovering near Cairo began to retreat one after another, as if they had completely given up resistance.
Cairo, Temple.
The endless yellow sand has completely submerged the ruins of the city in the past, and also buried the corpses below. From a distance, countless high and low sand dunes are scattered on the vast golden desert, and in the center, a majestic pyramid temple towering into the sky stands tall.
At the gate of the temple, Apocalypse, whose clothes were not even stained with blood, was quietly watching the rapidly retreating human coalition in the distance, with a hint of sarcasm in his indifferent eyes.
Even though the times have changed, the so-called resistance of humans is still ridiculous in his eyes, so when faced with provocation, he will slaughter them mercilessly, but when the ants begin to flee for their lives, he loses the interest to continue to kill them all.
After all, in the face of the coming flood of destruction, those humans who escape will sooner or later end up falling into the sea forever.
"Humans, hum!"
"No matter how long it has been, nature is always like this..."
Apocalypse was not surprised by the anti-heroic resistance of the human coalition. He just sneered and turned to look at the four knights behind him who were injured.
Compared to Apocalypse, who was unscathed and even had no fluctuations in his breath, the four knights looked much more embarrassed. Even Magneto, the strongest among them, was still seriously injured by the joint attack of many contractors.
But even though all four knights were injured, Apocalypse did not show any displeasure on his face. Facing the human army, a large number of sentinels, and many contractors mixed in, they were able to fight to the death and never retreat, which was already a very good attitude.
As the four knights guarding the gods, their personal strength is of course indispensable, but loyalty is more important. After all, when it comes to strength, no matter how strong they are, they can't surpass Apocalypse, who claims to be "God", and he doesn't need a knight who has the opportunity to surpass him.
Sometimes, defects are often an alternative advantage.
"Well done!"
As he spoke, Apocalypse raised his arm slightly, and then several beams of green light descended from the air, and in a moment, all the injuries of Magneto and others were healed.
"Continue to guard the temple. After the trial, you will share this new world with me."
After finishing his words, Tianqi glanced at the four people in front of him who had recovered from their injuries with deep meaning. It was not until he noticed a trace of enthusiasm flashing through their eyes that he walked straight towards the main entrance of the temple.
Soon, the dull footsteps were gradually blocked by the thick walls of the temple. Looking at Apocalypse's tall back disappearing into the shadows, the enthusiasm in Ah Fu's eyes slowly dissipated, replaced by a cold indifference.
For a long time, the four knights who were supposed to disperse and guard the temple did not move. In this silent silence, it was not until Afu chuckled that the dead atmosphere of the scene was broken.
"Ha, now that things have come to this, Lord Magneto probably won't choose to change his ways at this time!"
Magneto, who was at the forefront of the crowd with his scarlet cloak flapping behind him, did not reply immediately. There was a flash of struggle in his eyes as he looked at the majestic temple in front of him, but it was replaced by determination in an instant.
Completely annihilating human civilization and rebuilding a new world belonging to mutants is the ultimate goal that the entire Brotherhood has been striving for, and now this goal can be said to be only one step away from him.
As long as he chooses to continue to follow Apocalypse, the destruction of human civilization is almost within reach, but the only problem is that the new world born after that will no longer be based on his will, but will completely obey the superior one. 'God'.
Thinking of this, Magneto King flashed a sharp look in his eyes and said calmly:
"Go as planned, humans don't need a living god, and neither do mutants!"
Hearing this, Ah Fu in the back had not yet replied. The Scarlet Witch, who was staring at her father nervously, breathed a sigh of relief. From the beginning to the end, she never thought about following Apocalypse to destroy the world. On the contrary, she slaughtered this God was what she had always wanted to do.
Scarlet Witch's performance was undisguised, and Ah Fu couldn't help but curl his lips slightly after sensing the other party's general thoughts. As long as no one of the four knights chose to turn to Apocalypse, the other party's ending was basically foreseeable.
Without further words, he opened his clenched right hand, and then a small magic mirror slowly rose from his palm and continued to expand.
After a moment, figures one after another stepped out of the huge mirror that widened to about two meters.
Under the common attention of Magneto and others, Xu Yue, holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, took the lead, followed by Qin, Quicksilver, Nightcrawler, Phantom Cat and many other well-armed mutants with high-end combat power.
The eyes that were faintly burning with golden red flames slowly swept across the people in front of him, and finally stopped on the towering temple not far away. The next second, a pair of huge flame wings suddenly bloomed behind Xu Yue.
In the howling wind, he turned into a line of golden red fire and shot straight into the sky. Only a cold declaration of war was left in the desert, echoing for a long time.
"Let's get started, let's meet this so-called 'god'!"
